TTC and Weight Loss

Anybody out there? Lol

Hi I'm new to this board and my goal is to lose 50 lbs. Currently I have a medical issue that is keeping me from ttc, so I figure I should take these few months to get fit. I started my diet this week and plan to start my exercise program next week just so that I don't over do it the first week. Any tips?

Hello! I too am trying to loose some (about 25-30 lbs) as well as just getting healthy overall. What are you two doing to lose weight?

I have been eating better- taking all natural supplement because my doc said I was having a slight thyroid issue and need to boost my calcium. Also have been working out- cardio, strength training, walking, etc.

So far I've lost 15lbs!!! Yay!!!! Slowly but surely I will get there as will you!! I've been eating better and cut down from about 25 sodas to maybe 1 soda a week. Ya I know, that's a lot of soda. I've also been walking on the treadmill but I get so bored with that. I'm going to start Zumba this week and hopefully will lose more and have fun. I should be strength training but haven't started that yet. As far as tips I really don't know what to tell you because it looks like you have everything covered!! Good luck to you. Stay motivated, just keep picturing that healthy beautiful baby :)

Hi Liz! Sorry this reply is sooooo late lol. I'm with you I'd like to lose 50 but 30 sounds great. Thankfully my health issues have been resolved so now my focus is getting as healthy as I can so I can have a healthy pregnancy and a healthy baby. The motto is - lose a belly to gain a belly right? Lol

Congrats on the -15! That's AWESOME! Zumba is so much fun you will love it. I have taken some classes as well as have some home videos- the classes are my favorite! Its good to give up soda- I don't really like it so I have never really drank it. There is a livestrong tracker that I have on my iPad and love it! It tracks food and exercise. I also like sparkpeople.com

Continue with your great work! Before you know it all the unwanted lbs will be gone!
